Amer Dieu sanz mesure

The Measure of Infinite Love

We are called to love God without measure by contemplating the depth of His redemptive works for us.

Dear daughter, the measure by which we ought to love God is to love him without measure: he has well deserved that we love him, for he loved us first. I would like you to learn to ponder carefully the works the blessed Son of God has done for our redemption.

Read the original Latin

Chiere fille, la mesure par laquele nous devons Dieu amer, est amer le sanz mesure: il la bien deservi que nous lamons; car il nos ama premièrement. Je vodroie que vos seussiez bien penser as oevres que li benoiez filz Dieu a fet pour nostre rédemption.

Rule yourself daily, not just on retreat

Chosen Portion turns the mirror into a daily practice — a short reading and examining question each morning before you lead anyone.

Chosen Portion makes the mirror daily: the ruler-formation questions this collection preserves become a two-minute morning examination in the app.

  • A daily formation reading drawn from centuries of counsel to those in authority
  • One pointed examination question a day — two minutes, before the meetings start
  • Track your practice over weeks and watch the examined life become a habit
